    OTHER Audio question on GTMedia GTC

    I'll keep trying things. Your remote has many a lot more buttons than mine. I've tried left & right arrows, they adjust volume. I've had a few other receivers where the "green" button adjusts audio too but no dice. Here's the remote that comes with this one... very simple.

    OTHER Audio question on GTMedia GTC

    Hi everyone. I just got a GTMedia GTC receiver. So far I'm having good luck with it, but I can't figure out how to choose which audio stream (maybe they're called languages) I'm listening to when watching a TV channel. For instance, I'm watching COZI on 103 right now. The channel info shows that...

    BIG ugly dish finally up. Any fun suggestions?

    At this point, I don't think my neighbors would flinch if I had something pointed at their house. They already know me as the weird guy :) I did consider pointing it at 105W and subscribing to SkyVision again. Goodbye Rain Fade. Plus I'd never have trouble getting NBC.

    BIG ugly dish finally up. Any fun suggestions?

    Pictures... I totally forgot. I'll put these into the dish farm pics thread too... Still needs the feed installed, but at least it's not pointed at China anymore.

    BIG ugly dish finally up. Any fun suggestions?

    Hi site, I've had an 8' aluminum dish up for years now, motorized, works great. I've also had a big 15' commercial dish sitting in my yard face down for a couple years. I finally had the opportunity to get it facing up instead of down, complements of some borrowed heavy equipment. Now that...

    G-16/3848, please tell me what I'm doing wrong

    Hi, I'm sure I'm doing something stupid here, hoping someone recognizes my mistake and can help me. I've got an OpenBox S10, dish pointed at G-16 (99W). I rescanned transponder 3848 and it scans 6 channels. When I exit the menu I only see 4 of the 6 channels. According to lyngsat, I'm missing...

    What happend to Access America ?

    Sorry to wake up an old thread... Is anyone listening to Access America with luck? I'm tuned to the transponder, 85% quality, audio 1794. OSD says it's getting MPEG1, but I have no audio. I hooked up to the internet stream and I'm hearing music there. Am I doing something wrong, or are they not...

    A New OpenBox Firmware

    I loaded this firmware on my S10 and it's working beautifully. In my opinion the best one I've seen. No lock ups and everything seems snappy. I did notice some lip sync after a few days, but turning off & on seemed to clear it up for me. THANK YOU FOR POSTING IT!

    How to end up in the dog house.

    Thanks everyone for the replies and suggestions and whatnot! Yeah, now to be fair I have to admit I have a pretty awesome chic. I'm mostly making fun of myself. She's actually a FTA nerd just like me and loves playing with satellites right along with me. The main reason I was trying to get my...

    How to end up in the dog house.

    So, for about 2 weeks now my C-band reception has been horrible, and Ku non-existent. I assumed that the kids have been playing on or around my 8-foot dish again. I expected it to be bent, misaligned, or lord-knows-what else could have happened. I kept telling the misses that the kids need to...

    Scientific Atlanta Modulator Model 6330

    I recently got my hands on a whole bunch of SI 6330 RF Modulators. I don't know much about them, but I've seen them used for feeding TV channels throughout motels and other similar applications. I'd like to try using them to send some FTA stuff through my house but I have no idea how they work...

    Found an awesome dish

    Dee Ann, I recently had the opportunity to pick up 6 of those dishes from an old MMDS tv headend, and I passed them up because I had no idea how to get them outta there. You're right -- they are beasts built to stand the test of time.

    pics of the dish farm...post yours too :)

    Thanks guys for the welcomes, and thanks for all the pictures of your dishes too. Gives me inspiration on how to improve my own setup. Also makes me feel good to know I'm not the only "crazy" person out there with a yard full of parabolas. I've been really lucky here; my job has allowed me to...

    pics of the dish farm...post yours too :)

    Newbie here, I'll join the fun. 8' Aluminum, 10' Fiberglass, 15' fiberglass (on the ground), 6' fiberglass offset feed, and 3' fiberglass. Unfortunately the 15' probably isn't going to be pointed skyward this year before winter sets in for me.
